2023 ICAST Best New Saltwater Soft Bait

Z-Man's first hyper realistic line-through swimbait, the Mulletron LT features another ElaZtech® breakthrough: incredibly-detailed, photo-print baitfish patterning. Equipped with a reinforced top line-through harness, the Mulletron LT slides effortlessly up the line after a hookset, erasing the fish’s ability to leverage lure weight to throw hooks. The result is a livebait-like lure with inconceivable hookset and landing percentages. Rounded, wedge-shaped tail activates lure’s realistic swimming action at all retrieve speeds, including extra slow for sluggish fish. Custom, heavy-duty 3/0 (4.5”) and 5/0 (6”) black nickel, sickle hooks bolster strength, penetration and hookset-to- land ratio. Balanced, weighted lure harness combines with buoyant ElaZtech material combine to optimize lure’s natural upright posture while swimming or resting on bottom. Soft yet resilient ElaZtech greatly extends life of lure, even after repeated strikes from aggressive saltwater gamefish. Two sizes, a 4.5-inch (3/4-once) and 6-inch (1- 3/4-ounce), each offer a moderately fast rate-of-fall. Available in six fine-tuned baitfish patterns for various water and light conditions.
